Oh it does happen. I've had people tell me linux isn't a desktop OS multiple times and they listed ludicrous reasons that either are completely irrelevant or not true for like 10 years.
I've also had people tell me that PHP is a shit programming language and the reasons for them hating it were all outdated for like years or even decades. Once had some kid at a university I gave a lecture tell me "PHP doesn't even have classes wtf how are you coding in that shit?" my man classes were introduced in PHP 5 which was released 22 YEARS ago, you weren't even BORN when PHP5 was released.
Some people just want to hate something. Mostly if it's something that's "competing" with what they're using. And that's especially true in the tech world.
Lol I am the opposite, if some language has classes I will try to avoid them as much as possible
Fair stance, but idk how you keep large codebases structured without some kind of classes man.
Don't need classes to make functions (depending on the language of course).
yeah but then you have hundreds or even thousands of functions within the global namespace, that's fucking terrible to work with and a nightmare for auto completion
"Large codebases"? Pfft, if it hits 6k lines, it's time to scrap it and start over. /hj
Me excited to just now learn PHP has classes now
I had someone tell me you can't do work on Linux... If pretty much the entire internet, your router, your TV, your phone, your NAS, your car etc run on Linux then what is real work? They defined it as content creation and specifically adobe apps which can't argue don't run on Linux, but also are not what I consider "work."
Yep, I heard the same. Theres that animation studio that solely uses Linux. And I explained we work on an enterprise Product Lifecycle software that runs on SUSE or REL and it has high end CAD CAM FEA apps for desktop Linux. I worked on it for many years until Wayland and X11 started to swap which was default, then the parent company halted the GUI version of the software...you can still run the CAD CAM FEA as a headless app for solving and automating workflow, but I'm hoping once Wayland is sorted 100% and they see Linux went from 1% to 5% that they'll drop the GUI back in.
